White Rabbit Switch Hardware

Project description

White Rabbit Switch is an open hardware design of an 18-ports Ethernet
switch licensed under CERN
OHL 1.2. It is a central
element of a White Rabbit network and was designed as a part of the

The WR Switch can be used with official
firmware
releases. As the design is open it can also be used as the hardware
platform for other, non-White Rabbit
projects.
